ABSTRACT:
A post protector for protecting a fence post in a constructed fence from damage by lawn care tools such as lawn trimmers, mowers, or clippers. The post protector is three-paneled with a front panel, and a second and third panel attached to opposite edges of the front panel. The three panels are sized to have the approximately the same widths as the post to be protected. The second and third panel are bowed inward towards each other to provide spring pressure against a post positioned therebetween. A pointed piece is attached to the bottom edge of the front panel, and a flange is attached to the top edge of the front panel. In another embodiment of the invention, side molding pieces are attached to the second and third panel of the post protector and extend outward from the panels to protect adjacent fence boards.
